Snapchat Spectacles for sale on eBay

StuffAlertNovember 11th 2016 - Snapchat have started selling their first hardware product, "Spectacles" via pop-up vending machines called a "Snapbots". It should be no surprise that they are
reselling for a premium on eBay!

The new Spectacles, stylish glasses that can record 10-second video snippets, cost $129.99 and retail from a handful of vending machines in what is a limited debut. So, naturally, some of the enterprising souls who’ve tracked down the location of the vending machines, known as Snapbots, are
reselling the glasses on eBay. Many sales have been completed since the glasses started appearing on the online marketplace. The prices on successful auctions range from $500 to as much as $2,000 for a single pair glasses, with most going for $800 to $1,000.

Spectacles come in a handful of different colors, but those sold so far are mostly black. Sellers seem to be guessing that other colors will be in high demand—several live auctions are offering the teal color for upwards of $1,500.

There’s another odd offer, as well. An Australia-based Snapchat aficionado, Gun Hudson, has posted an eBay listing offering to trade a flight to Australia for a pair of Spectacles. With a short-term flight from San Francisco to Sydney running upwards of $1,400, he’d be paying just slightly above the going rate for the glasses.

Happy Searching!
